ESP married the classic body style of the E-II TE-7 7-string guitar to a maple neck with a rosewood fretboard. Rosewood is the premium fingerboard of choice for guitarists who prefer a toneful and responsive playground for fast fretwork. These qualities - on top of ESP's U neck profile and neck-through design - make rosewood the perfect fingerboard for high-speed, low-drag shredding. The set-through neck construction gives the E-II TE-7 impressive sustain while enhancing articulation and clarity. And the 25.5" scale length is perfect for high-gain tones and down-tuned playing, giving you a powerful foundation for modern rock, metal, and fusion.

EMGs onboard, for serious tone

The ESP LE-II TE-7 is fitted with two active EMG humbucking pickups. If you're deploying a low A or B, there's no use even trying a passive pickup. Designed specifically for 7-string guitars, EMG's 81-7 pickups give you an arsenal of formidable tone that's ideal for metal, fusion, and most any flavor of rock. Sweetwater knows that killer tone is important to you, and we're confident that the ESP E-II TE-7 can do the job.
